I peered into the inky black of my scrying bowl and uttered the ancient words.

I peered into the inky black of my scrying bowl and uttered the ancient words. I pricked a finger and let a drop of blood fall into darkness, falling forever. The ripples took form and I lost myself in the gazing of another world for a time. I witnessed many strange and terrible things, a tale of great heroism emerged and I recorded it here:

Motifs
1) She stands, drawing both daggers
A strange woman with the Baron's ear

2) Streets plunged into sudden darkness
1) Flying daggers rain down
A flying leap across rooftops

3) Drinking Ale you can't afford
Beyond the Valley of Mausoleums

4) A Horde of Undead Monkeys
3) Drinking Away Your Troubles in a dim tavern
4) Chunks of meat and exposed bone
A spear bursts from his chest in a spray of blood!
2) Lights go out across the city
2) Losa steals the light that remains

Morals
Don't draw attention you're not prepared for
(ECHO: The Monkey King steals the amulet)

Mystery
Why did the geyser choose this moment to erupt?
-----------------------
The numbers to the left of the motifs indicate those that I linked with silver thread (just match the numbers!)

This is my scrying report from today's #SundayAMSpeedSwords over on the livestream. I also did one for the second half but I was too enthralled by the story to finish it.

A question that came up for me: Is it intended that we should arrange our Motifs into three portions the way the Rogues do? Or do we keep ours more of a running list and just mark the echoes with silver thread?
